IRS Data Retrieval for 2015-16 Academic Year

Parents and students are encouraged to use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool in the Financial Information section of the FAFSA. This Tool allows you to retrieve and transfer your income and tax information directly from the IRS into your FAFSA. The IRS Data Retrieval Tool will be available 2 to 3 weeks after you file your tax return electronically OR 6 to 8 weeks after filing a paper tax return. (Note: If you owe federal taxes, the IRS will not process your tax return until payment is made.)
